MEMO: Asbestos – Containing Drywall Joint Filling Compound

PDF (160K)

This guideline has been prepared to assist building owners, constructors, contractors, subcontractors and workers who have duties under the Occupational Health and Safety Act and its Regulations to safely perform work activities involving Mould (Microbial) Abatement and Remediation.

The guideline promotes safe work practices, the use of personal protective equipment, worker awareness and training and is based in a thorough review of the available guidance materials available through November 2003 and professional experience of the abatement industry.

We believe that this guideline will not only help employers fulfill their responsibility and due diligence under the OSHA but will assist them to better address the challenges involved with proper assessment and remediation of Mould (microbial) contamination in buildings.

DISCLAIMER: (EACO) Environmental Abatement Council of Ontario disclaims any liability or risk resulting from the use of work practices and recommendations discussed in guidelines or any other area of this website. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that they are in compliance with federal, provincial and local regulations that may be applicable.
